EDITIONS DE PARFUMS FREDERIC MALLE Eau De Magnolia Body Milk

A rich yet easy to handle body wash that builds into a luxurious lather. It is formulated to cleanse and soften the skin, while perfectly rendering each fragrance. Each body wash contains the same concentrate featured in the original perfumes.

• About the Perfume: This time the conversation between Frédéric Malle and Carlos Benaïm revolved around the headspace analysis of the magnolia and the fact that this flower is closer to an Eau de Cologne than to a classic flower. Carlos then suggested magnifying the citric balance of the magnolia to enhance the Eau de Cologne effect and to add a woody vibration to give it depth and sensuality. The result is a fresh chypre, an extraordinarily transparent and very natural smelling note, enlivened by a dark base (vetiver, patchouli) that conveys a touch of mystery. A timeless summer perfume.
• About the Perfumer: A childhood spent in Tangier close to natural ingredients gave Carlos Benaïm a taste for beauty. A training under legendary American perfumer Ernest Shiftan gave him boldness and bravado. As for the fact that he always comes up with these elegant accords, it must come from his mysterious inner compass.
